A New York letter says: "There was
new opera and new necklace for
fashionable people to see this week. The
opera was "Merlin," and it was tho
famous string Of pearls which had once
belonged to the Empress Eugene, and
been worn by her in the days of the
French monarchy. Even in those days
of royal glitter in Paris this jeweled
thing shone so brightly as to dazzle be-
holders accustomed to lavish adorn-
ments. 1t consists Of 346 Oriental pearls,
set in golden chain, and il was valued
then at about $4,000. Napoleon's
widow put it into safe deposit vault in
Paris on her retirement to Chiselhurst,
and there it lay until the recent sale of
her useless effects. WIN. K. Vanderbilt
and his wife were in the French capt.
tai. and they purchased it at $500
They bought other things from the Eu-
genie collectiop-mostly household en-
bellishments--and these will be dis
closed at next weeks reoponing
of the residence on Fifth Avenue.
Mrs. Willie Vanderbilt put on the neck
lace for the opera. 1t was worn across
the top Of her heed; thence down the
back Of her couture to her neck, which
it encrsled, with enough left to hang
down on her bosom. Not a singer OH
the stage, aud hardly danseuse, COM
mandeG so many glasses as did Mrs.
Vanderbilt and her necklace"

The First Steamboat.-Att the
convention Of the American Shipping
and Industrial League at Washington
last week. says the Washington Post,
ex. Congressman Alexander r. Boteler,
of West Virginia, delivered an address
on the invention Of the steamboat. He
said that when he accepted the invita-
ton of the convention. he embraced the
opportunity to do justice to one whose
name is almost unknown, even among
shipping men. He said he would claim
for James Runiey,a citizen of Virginia.
the invention of the steamboat, in 1888,
twenty years before Robert Fulton
launched his boat on the Hudson. His
boiler was an iron pot with a cover riv.
cited and soldered down. At midnight
on September II, 1873, the trial was
made and the boat of six tons burden
steamed up and down the river. In
1884 Washington approved his plans.
and second boat was huilt which was
wrecked. A third boat was built at
Shepherdstown in 1877. Mr.. Boteler de-
sciibed the trial Of this boat as narrated
to him by eye-witnesses. Rumsey went
to ENGLAND where he died; but before
his death Robert Fulton met him and
got his idea of the steamboat.

verdict.-The coroner's jury sum

Verdict.-The coroner's jury sum-
moned by Justice John d. McGarry to
hold an inquest over the body of James
Furr, who was killed at Duffields last
week, found: "That James Furr came
to his death by being struck by engine
No. SOC, on fourth section Of train eight
at $50 O'Clock on the morning of the
10Th day Of January, in the year 1887,
at Duffields Station, which accident we
are fully satisfied could not have been
avoided by engineer David Drenner,
conductor Thos. Moore or men under
their charge. The jury also find that
the crossing where the accident occur
red is especially dangerous on account
of the amount of travel on county road
leading from ShepherdstOwn TO the
county seat, also OIL account Of number
of fast trains running on the B. 81 .. X.
R., it being a double track; and we find
is further endangered by the depot and
other distractions being located near
the said crossing, so as to obstruct view,
and that proper authorities should see
that the Railroad Company be required
to keep Waterman at said crossing
day and night to protect the travelling
public on the county road"

the Jury: Jacob NJ. Kephart, +. Frank

Messrs. w. d. HoRe and E. /. Geer, OF
the firm of Geer, Smith & Co., of Little
Washington, Pa, experienced oil men,
have been in this section for some time
prospecting for oil and natural gas.
They report the indications in this local
ity as being good, and are anxious to Sc
cure leases on property, within a radius
of some miles, so that they can proceed
to sink shafts to develop what they
claim is beneath the surface. A meet
ing of citizens was held in the Grand
Jury room on Tuesday, pursuant to a
previous call, and was largely attended.
The object of the meeting was explained
by Mr.. w. d. Hoke, and Mr.. j. w.
Dodd was called to the chair, anG Mr..
f. w. Vanmetre was made Secretary.
The terms of the lease, as explained,
were that the company should have the
exclusive right to bore for oil or gas,
and if it should be discovered the Lessee
to receive IA of the net profit arising
therefrom. A number of property own
ers signified their willingness to lease.
A resolution was adopted by the meet
ing, requesting the farmers to meet at
the Courthouse on Saturday. Jan. 22d,
for more thorough canvass of the mat
ter. The Importance of the discovery
of oil and natural gas cannot be over
estimated and all chances ought to be
taken to develop same if it exists, and
that point eau never be ascertained
until wells are sunk Martinsbmg States

LippincOtt's Magazine.

A complete new novel by Miss NJ. G. Nc
Clelland, whose "Oblivion" placed her among
the most promising of the younger American
authors, is the leading attraction of Lippln-
colts Magazine for February. The hero, by
birth Virginian of humble origin, returns
in maturity to his native town after having
made fortune In the West, and gains an
uncertain foot-hold among the local aristoc-
racy His shrewdness, his common sense.
his humorous perception OF the foibles OF his
fellow-townsmen, his self-satisfaction, and
his inherent coarseness, gloritied, however,
by tender vein of sentiment, make him as
striking q study as Daudet's Nabob. The
other characters are well drawn, and the plot
is fresh and unconventional. Another de-
lightful piece of fiction is ''Rothenburg Fe-
licity," a translation by Mrs. A. l.. Wister,
"after the German of Paul Heyse." Robert
Grant furnishes dialogue, 1.-TWO ways of
telling Story" in which the representatives
of two different schools OF art, the ideal and
real, have an amusing quarrel The literary
autobiography, which is a regular feature OF
Lippincott's, is furnished this month by Jno.
Burroughs, under the title of"Mere Egotism."
1t is a frank, readable paper, and gives much
interesting information as 10 this charming
authors literary career and methods OF
work. Charles Z. l.. Wingate contributes
notable article entitled "Our Actors and their
Preferences" He has written to the leading
actors of England and America-Edwin
Booth, Henry Irving, Wilson Barrett, Law
renee Barrett, Modjeska, Clara Morris, Fam
ny Davenport, etc.,-inquiring what are the
parts they prefer to play and the lines they
like the bert Their answers are published
in the article, and are varied and entertain
ing. William +. Curtis.contributes a bit Of
personal gossip entitled "a Day with the
President" giving vivid picture Of the daily
life of President and Mrs. Cleveland. The de-
partments are as bright as ever, and good
poetry is furnished by A. w. r. and c. II.
Crandall.

looked into the car where the bull and
stallion were and saw a strange sight.
The angered animals had broken down
the partition and were in the thick OF a
fight. No quarter was given. The
bulls horns ripped the stations fanks'
the stallion's iron-shod hoofs were Civ
ing sledge-hammer strokes. The bull

The Only Way to Conquer Dyspepsia.

1t Is perfectly preposterous to Introduce
pepsin and other artificial solvents into the
stomach i'm the expectation that they will
assist digestion by acting on the food itself.
They will not. Nor is 1t possible thus TO over
come dyspepsia. The only way 10 conquer
that disorder, and prevent the numerous dis
eases and disabilities which il assuredly pro-
vokes, is to renew the activity of gastric ac-
ton by Strengthening the stomach. Hos tet-
ter's Stomach Bitters eradicates the most In
veterate forms OF indigestion by restoring VI
tality to the alimentary organs, and those
which are tributary to them. The liver, the
bowels, the kidneys and the nerves no less
than the stomach, experience the 5invtgora-
tive effects of that standard tonic, which pos
s. sses Alternative properties that greatly en-
nance its beneficial influence, and give per-
manence to Its effects which they would not
otherwise possess

A special from Newark, Ohio, says
that the Baltimore and Ohio paymaster
who visited that place compelled each
employe of the road to sign pledge to
abstain from the use Of intoxicating
liquor before he could draw his pay.
This movement is said to have been
started because of the rumors about
drunken trainmen i'm connection with
the Republic disaster.
